Hello! I just wanted to say that Hyundai Ioniq (first generation) is the best EV for me
Reasons:
- Quite cheap (compared to other EV’s)
- Great range (if only it mattered this much)
- Good cargo space
And the most important thing
- KNOBS! (oh god I hate and obsolutely despise touchscreen-only controls)
I acknowledge Nissan Leaf exist and I give it superiority over ioniq in design but only the pre-facelift model. Haha funny frog car. I love it :)
That’s it. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
If you know any more EV’s with knobs and buttons, share your sacred knowledge in the comments.
The ionic is 72k AUD, it’s definitely not cheap over here.
BYD have a lot of knobs in addition to the touch screen. You can do more with the screen, but the knobs are adequate (imo)
He said first generation Hyundai Ioniq not the Ioniq 5
The first gen ioniqs are some of the best value second hand EV’s you can buy:

Don’t those have like 100 miles of range?
280-311KM
Second hand seems better, but I just wrote off the entire brand based on their new pricing.
Correct me if I am wrong, but is the first gen the one that had fire issues?
Thats awfull! In Europe you can have one for just under 19k AUD :(
Yeah, pricing is insane, especially given our proximity to Korea.
He accidentally got the wrong Ioniq generation, many people are not aware of the Ioniq range before the Ioniq 5
I also have a 2020 ioniq and agree with you, great car and exceptional second hand value 💪
